Skips, Suggestions, Mod Request and more!

Hey there! I'm MaxDragonSoul, and if you've done speedruns of Speed Run 4 you may have heard of me. I am a former world champion in that game. To start off I want to ask a few questions about how this has been set up. There is both Time and IGT as options. I'm not sure why this is a thing but I can understand that if you lag and don't go through the portal instantly, there can be compensation. I'm also intrigued by the Multiplayer category and the amount of players within a run submission. I don't believe the amount of players in a submission is important, as collision detection and interaction between players in a game are both not present. The Multiplayer sounds like a fun thing to run, but I fail to understand how it is a category; you can't interact within the run with others. With regards to the main categories and beating X amount of levels, it should be recorded as an addition of IGT, as AFK people can affect the real time equivalent without the use of a private server. Finally, I'd like to question the list of levels. If there is any reason for it to be in that order, so be it, but otherwise it should be in the order that you look at them in the menu. I have a few skips/glitches to put forward, the first being a well known skip in Skyscrapers, where you jump from the right of the orange platform to a lower portion of the stage. Another is in Heights. By angling your jump on the second trampoline in the run, you can skip the final climb and land on the end platform. In Tropical Dash you can jump once on the death plane if you're lucky and skip most of the annoying left to right platform arrangement. I have not successfully performed this. The last is in Pastel Valley that I haven't even pulled off yet. By performing another death plane jump, you can land not near the hill, but by the watermill to the right. I did this once and attempted to get to the rock, but an invisible wall of sorts stopped me. I'm sure it can be bypassed. To end off, I'd like to submit a mod request. As an experienced runner on Speed Run 4, I have translated my skillset from that game and implemented it here to achieve some incredible times, and as a max level player always on the daily leaderboard, I'd be a good mod for this game. Another thing to note is that I'm VERY active on this site, checking it multiple times a day, and I would be glad to check and verify any runs that need doing so. My final point is that I'd like to help my friend, Anando01, be recognised in this community. Either from parental guidance or simple choice, Anando01 is not making a sr.com account, and he has some legendary runs such as his 23.3 Swamp and 32.7 Tomb that he wishes to be recognised here. I feel I could help people like Anando01 and submit their runs here, and give them recognition for their outstanding achievements. So that's it really. I've had some questions, suggestions, and a mod request all in this post. Now I'm certainly not expecting the mod request to be accepted seeing as there are a few active mods right now, but it's more of a way of saying I'm up for the job when needed. Thanks for reading.

Yes, but why would real time be used for our current main categories? It would be completely reliant on how fast others finish, or fail.

Its used for full game runs I dont think you can get rid of irl time anyways I can research it tho.

So, would you be able to make IGT the proper ranking?

Michigan, USA

I think it already is

England

Great! Would we allow sped up recordings?

Canada

sped up recordings should never be allowed for any game under any circumstances.
